Date: 6 hours ago
City: Manila
Contract type: Full time
We’re looking for a curious, detail-oriented, and strategic Research Analyst to join our team. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on transforming complex, ambiguous data into compelling insights that influence business decisions. You’ll partner closely with cross-functional teams to analyze data, uncover patterns, and build high-impact presentations that bring the story to life.

As a Research Analyst at Smartly, you will...

  • Analyze structured and unstructured data (primarily in Excel/Spreadsheets and via SQL) to uncover key trends, insights, and business opportunities.
  • Distill complex data sets into clear, actionable takeaways that influence marketing, communications, or business strategy.
  • Build compelling presentations that communicate data-driven stories with clarity and impact.
  • Work collaboratively with stakeholders to understand business questions and align analysis to their needs.
  • Be a data detective—proactively identify and explore data to answer strategic questions and surface unexpected insights.
  • Bring a structured, logical approach to solving open-ended problems and ambiguous datasets.
  • Maintain strong organizational awareness to ensure insights are relevant and timely.
  • Help create scalable frameworks for recurring insights and reporting deliverables.


We're definitely looking for you, if you…

  • 5+ years of experience in a research, insights, business analyst, or strategy role.
  • Strong proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint; you can independently analyze and visualize data with clarity.
  • Proven ability to tell compelling stories with data and tailor insights to executive and technical / non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable working with ambiguity; you know how to ask the right questions and narrow focus from broad prompts.
  • Excellent communication skills—both written and verbal.
  • Strong organizational awareness and ability to prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience in survey analysis, brand tracking, and/or marketing analytics.
